First 3D plane
 

Hello.

After 7 years of no flying, i'ts finaly time to go back, this time to 3D.
I used to fly 4ch .40 trainer, and have 3-4 years of experience.

I've got the USB-RC for some rust-removing, and want to buy the real-thing.

I want a foam, cheap plane, that is not very hard to fly.
I would also need everything else like transmitter and receiver, batteries, etc. so RTF is nice.

I'm thinking about the typhoon 2 3D RTF, and would be happy with something cheaper.

Any suggestions?

Tnx

You don't say that you have any certain budget for this, so I assume you're like the rest of us and you can spend as much you'd like so long as your wife doesn't find out! An e-foamies plane (www.e-foamies.com) would be a good bet for you. They are expensive, but they are near indestructible. That will be important for someone that is learning 3D. Start out with their Revolution 3D trainer. I believe it's around $80. They can also sell you the motor, speed controller, battery, etc. They also have an Edge 540, Extra 300, and Yak 54 that you can move up to later when you've mastered some of the 3D stuff. Whatever way you go, good luck to you.

My mistake, but make that $95 for the Revolution 3D. It was $80 for the mini Rev 3D. All of their planes are back ordered right now too, but hopefully they'll have them back in stock before too long.
